L.J. Smith Carted Off Field
Philadelphia Eagles tight end L.J. Smith apparently reaggravated his sports hernia injury and had to be carted off the practice field.
“Actually, I didn’t get a chance to see it,” Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb said. “I was on the other field, and I just kind of saw him in the fetal position. Any time you see any of your players go down, you ask who that player is and what happened, and if he’s okay. Having pretty much that same injury, with the torn groin, and having it surgically repaired and coming back out here, it’s something you’ve got to battle through. Right now he’s going through another phase of it. I hope everything kind of works itself out and he’ll be back out here being able to be the L.J. we all know.”
This is bad news for the Eagles, He’s the 3rd best receiver on the team after Brian Westbrook and Reggie Brown.
If you draft Smith in Fantasy Football be sure to have a reliable 2nd option. He’s a huge injury risk and at this point, it would be smart to only draft him as a back-up.
